    I’d be unsurprised since it’s likely me that put it in the oven.

    I recommend chicken strips over nuggets though.

    By “tea”, they could mean “dinner” ( if they’re from Yorkshire)., so watch out.

    Not delighted.

    I’d eat it to be polite, because one time won’t kill me. Although, I’d probably regret it later.

    Since the pandemic, I’ve made all my own meals.

    I think that would be an okay hangover meal. Not as good as a Full English of course but if you were unable to leave the house and had to cobble something together from what was available it’s passable.

    that’s the worst tea I’ve ever seen

    I get that brits use “for tea” to mean “as a snack” which has fuck all to do with the beverage, but they still have literal royalty so I understand they’re a bit off

      It’s just regional differences in dialect, tea is the evening meal. So some places have breakfast/lunch/dinner, others have breakfast/dinner/tea.

      Not really. Tea is the evening meal around 5-6pm. If your from a family that has “Tea” then “Dinner” is has around 12-1pm, and “Supper” is a late before bed something. With breakfast that made 4 meals a day.

      Trends have changed, I think because work schedules have shifted later. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner are more common now.

    I don’t see a cup, much less a teabag. 0/10 tea.

    Doesn’t look authentic to me. Those potato smiles look to have a bit of browning on them - ought to be straight out the big bag in the freezer and into an oven that’s not quite up to temperature, then served pale and slightly soggy. Also needs some brown sauce and a fried egg on that plate, otherwise it’s not nutritionally complete. Good attempt for a foreigner, tho.

    I suspect this wasn’t made by a genuine Brit because of the American portion size.
